Will Ferrell Confirms Upcoming Script Read For 'Zoolander 2'

Will Ferrell has offered some information into a sequel for the 2001 Ben Stiller-lead comedy film Zoolander. And it looks like it's true.
There have been several rumors floating around for months about a script for the sequel being in the works, but now one of the original film's biggest characters, Will Ferrell, has voiced his insider scoop on whether a second film will happen. Whilst the plot of Zoolander 2 remains largely unknown, Ben Stiller did comment that it would focus on how "the fashion world moves so quickly".
In a conversation with JoBlo, Ferrell had the following to say regarding the possibility of a second movie:

"We are actually supposed to do a read-through of a sequel script soon, and Mugatu is a part of it."

Don't get your hopes up just yet though, as the sequel has been on the rocks for many years, going through many rewrites and cast changes in order to make actor/director Ben Stiller happy with what he is producing. In December 2013, he talked about how Zoolander 2 would accommodate the characters of Derek and Hansel.

“So, the movie will begin at a time when the whole world has moved on from Derek and Hansel because they’re so ancient history. It’s about them having to reinvent themselves and try to become relevant again.”
